Is RTE admission truly reaching the children who need it the most?
Under the Right to Education (RTE) framework, 25% of seats in certain private schools are reserved for children from economically weaker and disadvantaged sections. However, questions are being raised about how a family’s financial eligibility is verified during the admission process.
Concerns include cases where the income declared through an income certificate may differ from other financial records such as Income Tax Returns (ITR). This raises an important question: should available financial records be cross-verified during RTE eligibility checks?
Another concern is whether annual family income alone is enough to determine a family’s actual economic condition. Two families with similar incomes may have very different levels of property, savings, business ownership or other assets.
The larger question remains: how can the RTE admission process ensure that its benefits reach genuinely deserving children while maintaining fairness, transparency and accountability?

![Another serious allegation involving a PSI has surfaced in Amdavad. After earlier allegations of misconduct linked to Bopal PSI Jayesh Kalotra, M-Division Traffic PSI Bharat Pandya is now accused of driving under the influence of alcohol and causing an accident near Tragad Rabari Vas.
In a viral video, locals can be seen surrounding the PSI, while they have also claimed that a liquor bottle was found inside his car bearing registration number GJ04DA6745. The incident has once again raised questions over whether strict action will follow in such cases.
